In 2021, the young man, now 18 years old, entered the Guinness World Records as the tallest teenager in the world. It’s important to note that Shaquille O’Neal, 52 years old and one of the greatest legends in basketball, stands at 2.16m tall.

In the video shared by the former player, he is seen “intimidating” a shorter man before turning around and coming face-to-face with Rioux. He looks up and then stares at the camera with a completely shocked expression before bursting into laughter.

“You know it’s crazy when Shaq has to look up,” said one Instagram user. “That guy has to crouch to make a basket,” joked another. “Doesn’t even look right,” admitted a third user. “Shaq is so funny, man,” said another.
